NFL fans are concerned about Dolphins star Tua Tagovailoa, who recently suffered a concussion after participating in a dangerous play on Monday Night Football.
In Week 2 of this season, Tagovailoa suffered a concussion in Miami’s 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
On Monday night, the Alabama product prepared for his third game as the Dolphins took on the LA Rams. In the first half of the game, Tagovailoa reached down to stop Los Angeles’ Christian Rozeboom.
To secure the entry, Tagovailoa appeared to knee himself in the head, sparking outrage on social media.
“Another concussion that will never end with Tua, with these concussions it’s painful,” one user wrote.
Fans expressed concern for Tua Tagovailoa, who recently suffered a concussion, after he was kneed in the head.
Another user wrote “cte addicted bros,” while a third echoed the sentiments writing, “Dude is addicted to getting concussions.”
‘No. That’s why, as a fan of the team and him, I want them to find another option in the upcoming draft,” a fourth chimed in. “It’s a ticking time bomb for when the next concussion will derail him.”
“Well he’s lost some brain cells in the past,” joked a fifth.
“Finding new ways to get a concussion every few weeks is really beyond science,” a sixth commented.
NFL fans took to social media to voice their opinion about Tagovailoa during MNF.
The Hawaiian star’s first head injury was a Grade 1 concussion that occurred in September 2022 against the Bengals. In December of that year, Tagovailoa suffered a grade 3 concussion that sidelined him for the remainder of the season.
Many urged Tagovailoa to retire from football after his injury earlier this season. However, the 2020 fifth overall pick returned in a loss to Arizona on October 27.
The quarterback also prepared for another loss to Buffalo on November 3rd.
Miami entered Monday’s game with a 2-6 record and hopes to snap a three-game losing streak.
